I'm assuming it has a C5 engine in it also? The black plastic intake cover looks strangely familiar
|
nope it's some large displacement (forgot the size) one-off straight from GM turbo's and all.
|
Actually it is derivative of the C5R/CTS-V racing program... so essentially it IS a based on the LS6...
Oh - and not to gforget they kept the old pram leaf springs from the C5 chassis ... hehehe
